The New Yorker's "It" Accessory for Summer: a Hamptons Getaway

Decked out in fabulous navy & white, and dripping with gold accessories – the newly made-over Montauk Yacht Club Resort & Marina (or "MYC" if you're in-the-know) is the epitome of a chic nautical summer vacation...but without any annoying Hamptons hub-bub and glossy glitz. The multi-million dollar redesign and reno comes just in time for the 80th anniversary of MYC's storied prohibition-era legacy and long tradition of refreshing and renewing vacationers. Throughout the summer season, they are offering fabulous packages, including the Surf Package (surf lessons at the beach); the Lighthouse Cruise Package (a cruise to the Montauk Light House & wine); and the Spa MYC Package (Swedish massages for two).

“The renovations have turned out better than we ever could have imagined – MYC is gorgeous and sophisticated, but we have been able to maintain the same comfortable, relaxing vibe we have had for the past 80 years,” says Lloyd Van Horn, General Manager of the Montauk Yacht Club. “I find that the biggest compliment after undergoing a large renovation is to walk around the ground and see people with a newspaper, taking a nap – it shows that the guests can still enjoy themselves, get pampered and really relax.”
